The merge

One peaceful day the moon meets the sun,

Opposites from different worlds

Unexpectedly they become one.

Rays and light, slowly, steadily, beautifully begin to merge

So intriguingly different

Yet a friendship starts to surge

The sun within you resides

A confidence of brightness undisputed

The moon in me takes its rise

A cloud of mystery so brightly illuminated

Your rays shine onto me,

I feel comfort so absolute

Your hand fits mine so perfectly

I can never again feel destitute

I see you; I see into you; I see through you,

You can read me like I am a set of transparent words

Under your gaze, hidden parts of me grew

Lit by the beauty of your caring voice.

Your love has occupied every aspect of my existence

Without you I would fail to survive

You have opened up your heart to me,

A beautiful journey where I learn, where I thrive. 

Bonds with strength so indestructible

With the magnificence of a spider’s web

A relationship of kind so desirable

With rarity of preciousness grand

No longer do I wonder if forever alone I’ll dwell

For you are intrinsically by my side

A satisfaction in my chest that will eternally swell

For I know you are a constant in my life.

How unity we’ve become

Baffles me to the farthest extremes

Depth, seriousness, love, closeness and fun

Combine to create you and me.

This is a promise for all of time,

This is a confession of the serious kind

Forever I am of you, forever you are mine

The sun will set, the moon will appear

The cycle of life will continue to collide

No matter be it I am far or near,

This love in my heart is immortal.

You and I are not opposites after all,

The moon and the sun have now combined

Together we will celebrate, grieve, rise and fall,

Two bodies, one soul, one glorious mind.
